Word has it that the current dynasty's eldest princess has a new black-clad strategist in her service, and that ever since, her armies have never known defeat.
When they were young, her gentle, warm-hearted childhood sweetheart and senior fellow disciple suddenly betrayed their sect. He vanished without a trace after entering the secular world. With their master's evasive, vague answers only fueling her suspicions, Tian Ren resolutely smeared mud on her face, rolled up her sleeves, and descended the mountain to enter the secular world. She infiltrated the army and became an ordinary soldier with neither family connections nor a powerful patron, risking her life among tens of thousands of troops each day as she dreamed of bringing her senior brother home soon.
How had Senior Brother Yin Fufeng, once an otherworldly immortal in flowing white robes, as gentle as a spring breeze, turned into the black-clad strategist before her, so calculating and stern, capturing cities and deciding the fate of thousands with a wave of his sleeve?
On the day the army marched out, they exchanged a glance from opposite sides of the city wall. Her senior brother furrowed his elegant brows, the shadows beneath them veiling his deep, still eyes. In that tense moment, she glimpsed the turmoil and terror churning within him.
Tian Ren could not fathom why her senior brother kept avoiding her and refused to meet.
The eldest princess personally bestowed a name upon Tian Ren in the commander's tent. For an unknown foot soldier to suddenly receive such favor, the reason was naturally...
"I know the eldest princess wants to keep me here to hold you in check, but, Senior Brother, I only need one answer from you. Are you coming home with me or not?"
A cunning, possessive, and obsessive strategist senior brother x a bold, perceptive, and straightforward commoner soldier junior sister. (The path from foot soldier to general.)
